Roosevelt Asks Municipal Help
Mayors of 1 2 Cities Called To Assist President in Relief Expenditure
WASHINGTON. April 11.—<U.P)— President Roosevelt called t.pon mayors from a dozen important cities today to help put 7,000,000 unemployed to work through expenditure of the huge works relief appropriation.
As Mr. Roosevelt obtained a general picture of the city unemployment situation. Relief Administrator Harry L. Hopkins announced that federal relief rolls in 144 cities had declined for the second consecutive month.
List Diminishing The list for March was 9.817 families smaller than during February. Hopkins said employment of 3.500,000 persons with works relief funds would “break the back” of the government's relief problem.
When the mayors emerged from the white house confrence, Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York said the general relief program was canvassed, and that the conversation was “very satisfactory and encouraging.”
The delegation Included Daniel Wr. Hoan. Milwaukee, president of the United States Conference of Mayors; Frederick W. Mansfield, Boston; Howard W. Jackson. Baltimore; George Beg ole; M. C. El-lenstein. Newark, N. J.: R. E. Chancey, Tampa, Fla.; J. W. Beach, Hartford. Conn.; John C. Mahoney. Worcester, Mass.; J. F, F. Bright. Richmond, Va.; W. H. Speer, Wilmington, Del.; and E. J. Kelly. Chicago. Commissioner R. E. Riley, Portland, Ore., and Paul V. Betters, executive director of the mayors conference, also attended.
Proposal Disclosed Meanwhile, Public Works Administrator Harold L. Ickes disclosed his legal experts were studying a proposal whereby the federal government would cover half of the cost of PWA projects approved in states, cities and other political subdivisions. Under the former PWA allotments, the cities were given only 30 per cent of the projects’ cost; the remaining 70 per cent had to be raised by taxes or loans.
A fund of $9<i0,000.000 Is available for distribution in new PWA projects. Ickes pointed out that if the government gave 50 per cent of the funds as outright gifts “a lot more money would be going out over the country.” He explained that waterworks, sewers, roads and street repair projects could be started more rapidly than heavy engineering structures.
Word of renewed mid-west dust storms served to reveal that the soil erosion service is ready to start new projects as soon as it gets its share of the works money—possibly $150,000,000.

cers
Trojan student leaders have offered to donate the proceeds of Saturday's dance to help send Southern California's track squad to the I.C.4A competition at Harvard stadium, Cambridge, Massachusetts, May 31 and June 1. With the full permission of the University athletic committee for the squad to make the eastern trip but insufficient funds to finance the trip, student organizations have determined to raise the money.
First of Group
Saturday’s social hall dance is the first of the varied group of entertainments which will be sponsored to raise transportation expenses. Prior to the time of championship football teams, Dean Cromwell’s track men brought national recognition to the University of Southern California. Following last Saturday’s dual meet with the University of California and the unexpected Trojan win, S.C. students launched a program of benefit social functions to include one or more social hall dances, a show, and an open track meet.
Bids for the affair are being sold by Trojan Squires and Amazons, and by Harry Tompkins and Norman Paul, co-captains of the Southern California track team. Dick Parker, chairman of the dance, has distributed 250 bids among the salesmen but expects to limit the number to 200 to improve dancing conditions. Students desiring to attend and unable to find an organized group house salesman may secure bids at the cashier’s window in the Student Union fcr 75 cents a couple.
Schuman To Play Newly reorganized, Walt Schu-man's orchestra will supply the music for dancing from 9 p.m. to midnight. Palms wil) be used in decorating the social hall and some of the davenports and easy chairs will be allowed to remain to provide for more enjoyable observation of the dancing while resting.
Probably the same room on the second floor of the Student Union which was used as a checkroom at the College of Commerce banquet, will again serve that purpose. Pr.r-ker declared that someone will be in charge of checking to avoid any danger of mislaying wraps. Punch is to be served throughout the evening.
Members of the committee assisting Parker are Audrey Austin and Helene Tribit.

‘Mystery of the Ancient ‘Mayas, Is Topic of Explorer* s Talk
Presenting Robert B. Stacy-Judd, eminent British explorer, archaeologist, and author, as guest speaker, the University Cosmopolitan club and the World Friendship club will Jointly sponsor a student world affairs luncheon this noon In the Women’s Residence han.
Stacy-Judd will speak on the subject. “The Mystery of the Ancient Mayas,” in which he will explain the customs of the Mayas and their advanced cultural development. sketch their possible origin, and present his theories on the reasons for their destruction.
Qualified Lecturer
Because of his numerous expeditions and discoveries in the jungles of Yucatan, southern Mexico,
I where the vast Mayan ruins exist, Stacy-Judd is eminently qualified to speak with authority on the subject he has chosen, according to Philip Ahn, Cosmopolitan club president. With but two Mayan guides, the speaker has visited all the principal remains and uncovered many hitherto unknown Mayan ruins.
“The Mayan mystery has been aptly called the greatest story In the world,” says Stacy-Judd. “Only in recent years has the world realized the importance of research among these ancient edifices. The discoveries reveal that on the American continent a civilzation was folded that equalled, if not excelled the ancient cultures of Egypt, China, and Greece. A people whose origin is conjecture and who, at the zenith of their power, suddenly disappeared.”
Lengthy Career
The speaker first bacame interested in Mayan culture many years age, while seeking suitable motifs for a distinctive style of architecture that would be practical in modem American civilzation. He has since written several books on the subject, the latest of which is "Exploring Mysterious Yucatan.” Ruth Franke^ president of the
World Friendship club, will preside at the luncheon and will introduce Stacy-Judd. The affair will cost 40 cents and no reservations are necessary.
Students Discuss Oriental Relations at Conference
More than 100 students, representing different nationalities, attended the three-day American-Oriental Relations study conference which was held April 9, 10, and 11, at the University Methodist church with Lim Poon Lee as conference chairman. The Rev. Golder Lawrence presided at the informal discussions which were led by Dr. Clsude Buss and Prof Hyud Hossain.
“The problem of world peace must bo studied from a new perspective with the constructive efforts ra.her than destructive criticism, and we must be prepared for the Pacific era during which the East and West are to meet once again,” stated Takeshi Haruki. chairman of the conference committee.
Commenting upon Oriental relations, Dr. Buss stated that a kind of communism exists today in China, due to the introduction of
communistic ideaology and Soviet organization which was made at Chinese bidding.
“Japan wishes to avoid the very things that have shaken our system here, and her solution is to add more territory. But the good will of China is more important to her than the possession of Manchukuo, he concluded.
Prof. Hyud Hossain declared, “today the new emphasis is upon individual conviction in maters of religion. A phase of ‘indlfferentism’ has appeared, but the present generation has a truer instinctive quest for spiritual life which must not be confused with religious life.
“The shock of scientific challenge has weighed less heavily upon Hinduism and Buddism as they do not claim supematuralism. However, with the coming of modem science, the Chinese family system has been greatly weakened,” he affirmed.
Students Offered Make-up Practice
Starting regular meetings for laboratory practice in make-up. students who plan to enroll for the work wil meet at 12:15 p.m. today in the dressing rooms of Bovard auditorium, announced Robert Whitten, play productions manager.
The laboratory is planned to give interested students practice in theatrical make-up under the proper conditions, with lighting effects, scenic effects, etc., provided as well as make-up for the practice work.

Stacy-Judd will speak on the subject. “The Mystery of the Ancient Mayas,” in which he will explain the customs of the Mayas and their advanced cultural development. sketch their possible origin, and present his theories on the reasons for their destruction.
Qualified Lecturer
Because of his numerous expeditions and discoveries in the jungles of Yucatan, southern Mexico,
I where the vast Mayan ruins exist, Stacy-Judd is eminently qualified to speak with authority on the subject he has chosen, according to Philip Ahn, Cosmopolitan club president. With but two Mayan guides, the speaker has visited all the principal remains and uncovered many hitherto unknown Mayan ruins.
“The Mayan mystery has been aptly called the greatest story In the world,” says Stacy-Judd. “Only in recent years has the world realized the importance of research among these ancient edifices. The discoveries reveal that on the American continent a civilzation was folded that equalled, if not excelled the ancient cultures of Egypt, China, and Greece. A people whose origin is conjecture and who, at the zenith of their power, suddenly disappeared.”
Lengthy Career
The speaker first bacame interested in Mayan culture many years age, while seeking suitable motifs for a distinctive style of architecture that would be practical in modem American civilzation. He has since written several books on the subject, the latest of which is "Exploring Mysterious Yucatan.” Ruth Franke^ president of the
World Friendship club, will preside at the luncheon and will introduce Stacy-Judd. The affair will cost 40 cents and no reservations are necessary.
Students Discuss Oriental Relations at Conference
More than 100 students, representing different nationalities, attended the three-day American-Oriental Relations study conference which was held April 9, 10, and 11, at the University Methodist church with Lim Poon Lee as conference chairman. The Rev. Golder Lawrence presided at the informal discussions which were led by Dr. Clsude Buss and Prof Hyud Hossain.
“The problem of world peace must bo studied from a new perspective with the constructive efforts ra.her than destructive criticism, and we must be prepared for the Pacific era during which the East and West are to meet once again,” stated Takeshi Haruki. chairman of the conference committee.
Commenting upon Oriental relations, Dr. Buss stated that a kind of communism exists today in China, due to the introduction of
communistic ideaology and Soviet organization which was made at Chinese bidding.
“Japan wishes to avoid the very things that have shaken our system here, and her solution is to add more territory. But the good will of China is more important to her than the possession of Manchukuo, he concluded.
Prof. Hyud Hossain declared, “today the new emphasis is upon individual conviction in maters of religion. A phase of ‘indlfferentism’ has appeared, but the present generation has a truer instinctive quest for spiritual life which must not be confused with religious life.
“The shock of scientific challenge has weighed less heavily upon Hinduism and Buddism as they do not claim supematuralism. However, with the coming of modem science, the Chinese family system has been greatly weakened,” he affirmed.
